Tuesday Explorer: Jacarandas trees tour

  • Captain Kidd's, 209N Harbor Drive, Redondo Beach, CA 90277

A tour of Jacaranda street trees in Culver City, West LA and Santa Monica. This will be a fairly easy and flat ride. We take the Ballona Creek path going to Syd K park then ride in neighborhood streets through the above cities.

We will stop to take pictures at particularly inspiring sites - just call it out if you want to stop to take a picture. I used the publicly available TreeKeeper database to research the locations of Jacaranda street trees.

47.1 mi, 1303 ft, Jacaranda trees tour - Ride Leader : Mario Obejas

Pace : L2/L3
Ride start is 9am, at the plaza just south of Captain Kidd's
The Tuesday ride varies by design. If you want novelty, this is your ride. Routes vary between ~35-55 miles, 1000-3000 feet of climbing, typically in the middle third of the distance range (41-49 miles). If we go to an eating place, expect a "digestion pace" on the return.

We often go to places that would otherwise be too crowded on a weekend (eg, Hollywood Sign, Inspiration Point, Porto's, etc). We are usually done by 1-2pm, and a coffee or meal stop is customary (usually at the end; sometimes that's the destination).

"Beach Cities Cycling Club, South Bay" is a 501(c)7 non-profit mutual benefit organization.
